Fair Verona:

Hurray its Sunny!!!!!

Well today was spent sightseeing in Verona.

We wandered round some of the site doing the tourist thing.

A famous bridge in Verona (Ponte di Castelvecchio)



Look what top im wearing!!!! :grin:



We then went round the Colesium (spelling?):



We also climbed up a hill and took some great photos looking down on Verona:



(Wow what a great picture - I wonder who took it? (Benny: You will like that one)

Then sat in a restaurant overlooking the main square and had some nice food and a cold beer, mmmm nice.

Just off now to an Icecream shop to have yummy icecream! We will take a pic and post it tomorrow.


Oh and ive developed a theory,: 1 out of 2 Italian cars is dented or scratched!, hmmm.

Quite impressed I am .

How are you and your bro , recovered yet ?. Took us a while this time , to many late nights.


You going to do the IJ again or was it a one off ?

[CharlieBrown]

Yes recovered, took me a week though.

I would definately do it again (maybe not next year but sometime) the people on it were great, the driving was amazing and I/we had so much fun.

It did make me realise how cool road trips are. Some day I would like to do one in the U.S and one to Russia (Im just dreaming now).

[rougeleo]

I'd be up for Russia , probably going next year anyway by boat .

Norways nice great roads for minis .
Hoping to do Barcelona with a few of the Minibandits on the IMM , that should be a good laugh .


Always fancied the round the world in 80 days rally , but not in a mini


Mk1 GT Cortina ...more room .

[CharlieBrown]

[rougeleo]
